Jonathan Gruber said, essentially, ‘just get’em covered and worry about everything else later.’ Well, now we can see how mindless and problematic that approach really is:
#Obamacare produces ‘coverage’ gains, but ~90% (7.49 million) is growth in unsustainable Medicaid dependency program
CBO: employer coverage to shrink by 10 million, costly Medicaid/CHIP entitlements to swell by 16 million
More evidence ER use still rising despite #ACA mindlessly getting more people ‘covered’
Study: Medicaid co-pays do not significantly reduce ER usage
A decade and $13B later, no proof California mental health program has improved outcomes
Study: some insurers short-change AIDS patients (#ACA did NOT solve preexisting conditions problem)
CBO: #ACA in deficit $50K per enrollee next 10 years, will still leave 29-31 million uninsured, Brit paper reports
Forget ‘coverage’. Where’s the proof #Obamacare has improved health outcomes?
#Obamacare’s ‘abracadabra’ healthcare – no more docs, but everybody’s ‘covered’, right?
One cannot help but be struck by the monstrous incongruity between the hopes the #ACA engendered and the reality.
